For public health and export requirements, red pepper must be produced free of hazardous contaminants. However, previous investigations showed that red pepper could be contaminated by aflatoxin above the limits that may be critical for health. In this study, use of the high oxidising power of ozone achieved detoxification of aflatoxin. Samples were subjected to ozonation at various ozone concentrations (16, 33, 66\u00a0mg\/l) and exposure times (7.5, 15, 30, 60\u00a0min). In summary, the reductions of content of aflatoxin B<sub>1<\/sub><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>in flaked and chopped red peppers were 80% and 93% after exposures to 33\u00a0mg\/l
